Hong Kong Disneyland inHong Kong is the fourth version of the outer space-themedenclosed roller coaster inDisney parks. The newest Space Mountain (not counting the three recent refurbishments of the Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, and Tokyo Disneyland) is based on the refurbished Space Mountain at Disneyland, with a similar soundtrack and the same layout. It also features new show elements not presented in the refurbished California version (i.e. a "hyperspeed" tunnel). It will not feature the Rockin' Space Mountain configuration that is featured in Disneyland's Space Mountain.Unlike most Space Mountains, the boarding area for the attraction is quite small. Not present is a Space Station of its two most similar counterparts at Disneyland and Tokyo Disneyland. Instead a dark queue featuring neon earth-tone colored planets along with star patterns decorate the area. Lining the walls of the station are colored neon light bars that are used for lighting and decoration.
It is the only Space Mountain to feature Single-Rider alongside its regular standby line. Also different than most Space Mountains, whose buildings pretty much stand alone, this incarnation features a building attached to it hosting a smaller attraction, but not visible from the ride itself.
pace Mountain - Ghost Galaxy
As part of Hong Kong Disneyland's Haunted Halloween event in 2007, Space Mountain went under a Halloween overlay, similar to Disneyland's Rockin' Space Mountain overlay. The new overlay appiled some of the same effects that Rockin' Space Mountain used, but instead of a rock 'n' roll concert, the ride was themed appropriately to the Halloween season. A new soundtrack was used as well for the overlay. [ [http://www.screamscape.com/html/hong_kong_disneyland.htm Hong Kong Disneyland ] ]
